Jay-Z and Timberlake -- who have combined to sell more than 67 million albums and win 23 Grammy Awards -- will be making 12 stops at major stadiums in North America during this tour. The Legends of Summer Tour kicks off July 17 at the Roger's Centre in Toronto and continues through an Aug. 16 date at Sun Life Stadium in Miami. Along the way, the trek will touch down at such fabled venues as the Rose Bowl, Fenway Park, Yankee Stadium and, most importantly for locals, Candlestick Park.

Rumors of the Jay-Z/Timberlake tour started on Grammy night, when they two performed together. Timberlake's new single "Suit & Tie" marks a return to the music business after a prolonged hiatus.
